Minor races 2020 **SPOILERS**

MVDP said he was coming in fitter this year
than his late start last ...

Oops, MVDp has tumbled!

If that's where he's starting!

Was half listening to the post-race interview and i think he said he's 3kg off his race weight.

(Spurious claim to fame - one of my colleagues used to work with Iserbyt's mum!)

More CX today from Gavere.

Lucinda Brand just won the women's race. Anna Kay #12 and Evie Richards #14.

Pidcock going for it!

Edit: Pidcock looking really great!

Can he hold on? MVDP is a beast!!!!!

Hoping that MVDP is more knackered from yesterday

I thought MvdP was playing with them. Not so sure now. Pidcock riding superbly.

 

[bitsandbobs]

Damn!
And Mein in the top 10.

Edit: Iserbyt found out in the heavier going. Bit of a flat track bully.

How good was Tom!

Belgians v impressed. I wonder of Ineos will let him continue to do all the CX and MTB stuff.

He might well have made that a clause in his contract. Hope so, anyway

In the UK, the choice is broadcast Eurosport, Eurosport Player, or the GCN Race Pass.
Eurosport Player has highlights packages for some races, and non-cycling stuff, that GCN doesn't, and it seems easier to find old races on GCN, but otherwise they are pretty much identical.

3 kg lighter than he was at RVV
